The best way to train her is to not leave her outside. You will need to be with her all the time to watch when she goes and praise and reward her for going. When you let her out of her crate, take her out to go... when she does reward her. If she does not then she goes back into the kennel for a few minutes and back outside again. It is best to take her out every 30-60 minutes Until she gets the hang of it
